Hi,

I have been trying something I presumed pretty straight forward, I am trying to pass the ModalResult for an OK or a Cancel button (i.e. 1 or 2) through to another form and inserting them into a variable so I can proceed with an update if the varible = 1.

My form is pretty simple and I have declared my Global Variable as below (a.).  I have called the Global variable into a variable on my second form as below (b.) to use for my updates.

I am getting the error 'Type mismatch; 'strResult'', as you can see I have used a msgbox to see if the ModalResult is being passed through and it is not.

I have also tried using an Application.Globalinfo.Add? to set the variable.  I cannot find much advice on Global Variables online and would really appreciate it if anybody could advise/point me in the right direction.

a.

Dim globstrBankDetailsUpdateScreenClose

Sub AXFormClose(Sender)

    'Application.BasicFunctions.GlobalInfoClear
    Application.BasicFunctions.GlobalInfoSet"globstrBankDetailsUpdateScreenClose", frmBankDetailUpdate.ModalResult

End Sub

b.

Sub cmdUpdateBankDetails(Sender)

    Dim strSQL
    Dim objSLXDB
    Dim strConfirm
    Set objSLXDB = New SLX_DB

    Application.BasicFunctions.DoInvoke "Form","Personal:BankDetailUpdate"

    strConfirm = Application.BasicFunctions.GlobalInfoFor("globstrBankDetailsUpdateScreenClose")

    msgbox strConfirm

    If strConfirm = 1 then

I always pass modality between views using MainView objects.....many explanations of how to do that are up here....

I'd put a MsgBox in the AXFormClose to make sure it is even firing.....

don't know what version of SLX you are on....

but

Dim MyValue

myvalue =cINT( txtSomething.text )

Application.GlobalInfo.Add "globstrBankDetailsUpdateScreenClose", myvalue

and

Dim MyGlobal

MyGlobal= Application.GlobalInfo.globstrBankDetailsUpdateScreenClose

If MyGlobal = 1 Then

works fine for me....
